Wow that is awesome and what a way to go out in style for Catalina Cruz the lone senior on the team and she clinches the first berth into the NCAA Tournament for the ladies. Also it appears they cam back from a 3-0 deficit to win. Very early but they will probably be in a Baylor Pod or UT Pod for the Tournament.

Awesome win for a first time victory over Top 50 Team.

Bowler...you should feel especially proud. Because if this board has a tennis guru....you are it, brother. Thanks for all the NCAA tennis/recruiting info which you've provided down through the years.

Thanks to Sun Belt Sports for the coverage.

Thanks for the update.

I was officiating the SCAC Tournament all weekend but was checking my phone constantly waiting for results. Got to officiate a great final today between Trinity and DePauw and then seeing UNT pulled it out made my day even better.

BIG win for the program. Good job ladies

So how does the NCAA tournament format work for tennis ? ( teams,regions ? )

They will select 16 sites that will host 4 teams each, think College Baseball. For the most part they keep schools very close. I have a bad feeling we will be playing Baylor first as a #4 seed in the region, since UT-Arlington lost in the Sun Belt Finals, but we might get lucky with a #3 seed and play a fading A&M Team.

Will be curious to follow.

Unfortunately not double elimination, but looked at more the pod sites of the Baseball playoffs

I've watched some late rounds on ESPNU the last couple years(I think the Championship last year). I'm pretty sure it's just a single elimination deal.

EDIT:

And now I see Bowler's reply.

Temporarily changing my long time GMG.com avatar of the SuperPit in honor of the ladies championship. Hope we get a more winnable 1st round matchup than our basketball team did. B)
